MMR Brake Pads - Front: BMW F8x M-Cars RP650 Performance Fast Road | MMR27-1001F

The MMR Performance RP650 Front Brake Pads are an essential upgrade to your factory braking hardware. Through extensive testing on road and track, the result is an advanced ECE-R90 approved high friction material that delivers near-zero brake fade under high temperature use, yet doesn’t requiring a warmup period.

Drive your car hard and the chances are you’ve experienced brake fade at some point. That’s where the MMR High Performance RP650 Brake Pads come in. A simple replacement for your factory pads using the standard braking hardware, they deliver a much higher resistance to high temperature fade. This makes them perfect for fast road driving and even occasional track day use, yet without any compromise in daily driving.

A lot of the compound testing focused on developing a pad that finds that sweet-spot between excellent cold bite and high temperature fade resistance. The result is a medium aramid fiber compound with friction coefficient of 0.42mu in the temperature range of 450 – 650°C.

This compound is the secret to how MMR's High-Performance RP650 brake pads manage to provide superior stopping power and reliable performance under even the most demanding conditions yet without requiring a warmup period.

As well as outright performance, another key development focus has been around perfecting pedal feel - resulting in a nice progressive pedal response underfoot. The slotted and chamfered construction ensures quiet and smooth braking.

Meanwhile, MMR's RP650 brake pads are designed to last longer than traditional brake pads, reducing the need for frequent replacements - even saving you money in the long run. This also means that the pads produce less dust than factory pads do, keeping your wheels cleaner and reducing the need for frequent cleaning.

Finally, it’s a legal requirement in most countries for brake pads to carry ECE-R90 certification – yet many other aftermarket pads do not. Not only is this R90 standard essential for legality (and potentially your insurance validity), this regulation gives you the peace of mind that the pads are tested and approved for cold performance, speed, sensitivity, friction behavior, compressibility, shear and hardness. So, the pads will work just as well when cold as when up to full track temperatures.
